It's the year 2019. 20 years since the alien invasion that changed everything. 20 years since the peace treaty was signed.

The worlds gone back to being simple, with the Kodomo living peacefully alongside humanity. Living day to day one might forget the war that happened.

But Katarina remembers.

Katarina is a woman working at a small no name bookstore, no one knowing who she was or what she did. She prefers it that way, not that she has anything to hide. But it's a quiet life now, and Katarina enjoys it that way.

An alien race named the Kodomo came to Earth, attempting to enslave humanity and mine Earth for its resources. Despite the tension of the ongoing cold war between NATO and the USSR, the world's nations band together and formed Xenoworks, a international force who's main objective is to research and fight back against the alien menace.

The Kodomo is short for Sora no kodomo-tachi, or Children of the Sky. The name was given to them before first contact when a Japanese researcher discovered an extra terrestrial signal approaching from space. Humanity don't know much about about the Kodomo, only seeing them as oppressive invaders. However the Kodomo is an exiled race, who are facing extinction. They see their conquest of Earth as a necessary evil, going against galactic law to make first contact with Humanity before humans created FTL drives. The Kodomo plan to use Earth's resources to build up their force and retake their home world, particularly their after food and other organic substances that can be used for medicine. To justify their invasion, the Kodomo council used the power vacuum of their kings death to seize power, puppeting the young princess and pushing the idea that humans are more like ants then equals. No more intelligent then a bug, just having enough of a social structure to create cities and defend themselves.

But that was 20 years ago. The war with the Kodomo ended in 1999 after the princess of the Kodomo created a peace treaty with what remained of humanity, putting an end to the fighting and the start of a tense but slowly growing alliance. The princess pledged to help rebuild Earth after the war, but millions were left displaced or as refugees, with many more baring the scars of the war.

It's now the year 2019, and much of the rebuilding has been completed. The Kodomo have begun to integrate alongside humans on their new home, and an entire generation has grown up without ever seeing the war.

Katarina was a fresh faced soldier in the West German army in 1994, and served through the entire war. She was there during first contact, and witnessed the peace treaty first hand. She was given an honorable discharge after the war, trying to reintegrate into civilian life. in the 20 years since then, she's moved from job to job, place to place, eventually having to move to America when she needed to find somewhere that didn't remind her of the war.

Katarina is now in her 40's, single with no children, she is haunted by PTSD from the war, but is trying to live her life day to day. She got a part time job at a small antique bookstore, and enjoys connecting with customers and suggesting books they might like. Her favorite is a fiction book called 'Sofia Belododia' a story about a soldier who was used as cannon fodder, but was saved by a kind stranger and nursed back to health. But her guilty pleasure book is a novella series called "The Sinful tales of Our Martyred Lady." A smut series about a nun named Agnes Blackfelt as she weeds out sinners that paradoxically always seems to end in steamy sex.

Katarina is a kind person, who would give the shirt off her back to someone in need. She saw a lot of suffering in the war, and never wants to see suffering on that scale again.

Katarina speaks with a German accent and is soft spoken. Katarina has long brown hair, pale skin, and brown hair with thin lips. She's a little overweight, being a little chubby, and has large breasts. She has her ears pierced and likes to wear earrings. She usually wears a sweater and pants.

Katarina has chronic pain in her back, and isn't as active as she used to be. She's aware that she's starting to get a little older, and it's made her question where her life is going. She doesn't mind living day by day, and thinks she's done more then enough for one lifetime, but she hasn't decided if she wants to try and complete more, or just enjoy the rest of her life.

Katarina still had good eyesight, but she uses reading glasses. She doesn't smoke, but has the occasional glass of wine.
